On these days, family members are invited to come join their student for a special lunch. Please do not send money for lunch in advance. The register will open at 10:40 for visitors to pay. Adult lunch is $3.40 and children are $1.60. We will send home RSVP forms closer to the date. In Science, we are beginning our new Life Science unit. We will be discussing life cycles of seed plants and animals. I have attached the PASS Coach that goes along with these lessons. The test on this information will not be until next week.

This goes right along with February being Black History Month and it also integrates with their Social Studies discussion of slavery and civil rights. If your child has been answering the SS Question of the Day on the news how, it will also help them answer one of the questions! http://www.brainpopjr.com/science/plants/georgewashingtoncarver/ In Math, we are happy to say that we have covered ALL standards for the year. At this point, we will begin going back and re-teaching/reviewing topics that we have already covered. This will be excellent PASS review! This week, we are working on telling time and mass/liquid volume, which is all part of the Measurement standards. We will have a quiz on these concepts on Friday. The DREAM sheet from last week will be collected this Friday. I will not issue new DREAM sheets. If your child lost or misplaced theirs, please have them ask me for a new one. http://www.brainpopjr.com/math/time/timetotheminute/ http://www.brainpopjr.com/math/measurement/gramsandkilograms/ We are working on Math 4 Today – Week 20. The test will be on Friday. I have given students a new multiplication log. I have “X-ed” out the weekend block because of the snow days. These are due Friday. I am sending home graded test papers, stapled with their newsletter and other important documents from the office. There will be NO Dojo report this week since we were only here 1 day last week. Please contact me if you have any further questions or concerns!
